Hi

I have created my own database for DVD's as i have a few.
I have manged to insert pictures of each dvd, by looking
up a file location of the picture. The Problem i have is
that some of my dvds i dont have a picture for and
therefore want an empty box to be displayed. Currently it
is showing the last picture that was viewed

Another thing is i want to do is add descriptions to the
Movies. A text field only allows 255 characters but
sometimes i need more than this.

can someone help me with these queries

Thanks

Andrew
 
Hi Andrew

you could use a memo field - it allows 65,535 characters (or so my book
tells me) ...
as for the pictures showing the last one as you step through the records,
i've not seen this happen - is the data type of the picture field OLE OBJECT
and how did you insert the pictures?

Cheers
